Misheard Callsigns

Quick stop yesterday at Sheldon Park to view BHX traffic. Nice views of the Emirates 777 but otherwise quiet. Just about to pack up and leave when there was call to tower from an aircraft with pilot who's first language was not English and call-sign 'Towbar'. Interesting, I thought and deided to hang around.

Couple more calls before I twigged word was actually 'Stobart' and it was a EI ATR!!

Any others with tales of mis-heard callsigns?
